Darkness has many faces, many words to express it..
There are many ambassadors, every side you look at, you will see some... But in any case, the word has the value of the mouth that gives it. And this is what we are experiencing here: the veil of "Thanatopsis" was woven, for a long time, by magical hands and studied by worthy heads with thundering mouths. In this lp we have a union of mythical monsters; history will ensure them the pedestal they deserve. From Varathron, Macabre Omen, Kawir and Jackal's Truth they have come together to present us with this black elegy. Inspired also by the ancient Greek treatise, in battles in recent years with their demons - the album as a whole bows in salute to Chrysa and Constantine-Adam who have passed from this life - they overtook all of them. . "It's no use lamenting anymore...", Dionysus cries in Exodus-Cleansing.
With handmade - of ancient Greek inspiration - instruments in their hands (Apollo's Lyre, Tympanum and Dionysus' Diaphragm), accompanied by all the norms of old school black metal. With a muffled and dark voice, they utter (often with polyphonic accompaniment and chorus recitations by the ethereal, dramatized voices of actresses - women) words that rip like a razor, even when followed by melodic passages.
Their purpose is not to sweeten us. Thanatopsis came to reflect, on top of everything else, that the veil of Death, when set to music, ends up as an ode.
"I come on impulse...", the narrative begins and is true to the Truth. Despite the loss, the coexistence of Death and Life, "mortem nihil ad nos pertinere", Death has nothing to do with us, our sounds and words will resonate, as long as you press play..
"Bacchus, eun eun eun", Thyrathen eun eun... Cheers.
